Harvard Study: Media Bias Against Trump

Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies. There's no "this country" left with your immigration policies, your "allies" are worthless and even more suicidal than you are and democracy is a sick joke that I hope nobody ever thinks about repeating when the current order collapses. - Darth_Executor striking a conciliatory note in Civics 101

I assume that is what is occurring with this study also. Anyone who watches the Fox News channel in general knows that the people there would gladly let Trump sexually assault them and would blame the democrats for it happening.

From the OP
On the broadcast side of the media spectrum, Fox News provided the most even-handed coverage, with 52 percent anti-Trump coverage.
The broadcast portion of the study accounts for reporting on , but does not represent talk show coverage. Newspaper analysis incorporates all sections but obituaries, sports, and letters to the editor.

Excuse my for providing a link to a rather off-topic "press coverage" in which Alec Baldwin's Donald Trump sings Leonard Cohen's 'Hallelujah'.

I guess we can agree for once that this is fake news.

Then your critique is merely uninformed opinion - if you can't be bothered to find out if they did it right or not then you have no right to comment on the findings as anything other than your uninformed opinion.

In an earlier post you made a hypothesis about the current republican party being insane. I'm now challenging you to show the proof. Give us the psychological study you did and your diagnosis of said illness. Disagreeing with what they are doing or saying is not proof. I want real proof. if you only have that you disagree with the way they see things you have nothing, and Teal and I are right you are an uniformed closed minded anti intellectual.Last edited by RumTumTugger; 05-24-2017, 09:38 PM.

Originally posted by Starlight View PostIt does seem fairly clear that you don't know what words mean.
Let's compare the ability of our test subject to understand a simple phrase.
We'll use a representative of the Supreme Court as our baseline.
THE TEST
Let's look at the phrase: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion..."
TEST SUBJECT #1
I sent RumTumTugger a telegram asking what that phrase meant and here is her response:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion..."
TEST SUBJECT #2
I sent the Supreme Court a telegram asking what the phrase meant and Ruth Bader Ginsburg showed up on my doorstep.
She was all bug-eyed and frothing at the mouth - her black muumuu blowing in the winds of a storm that had just arisen.
She said the phrase means "Civil governments not at all connected to congress shall not place religious items on public properties in celebration even though that doesn't establish a religion and even though no laws are touched by it."
She then cackled, turned into a bat, crapped on my Bible and flew away.
VERDICT
RumTumTugger has a much better grasp on the English language than the Supreme Court, which I'm afraid, isn't saying much at all.Actually YOU put Trump in the White House. He wouldn't have gotten 1% of the vote if it wasn't for the widespread spiritual and cultural devastation caused by progressive policies. There's no "this country" left with your immigration policies, your "allies" are worthless and even more suicidal than you are and democracy is a sick joke that I hope nobody ever thinks about repeating when the current order collapses. - Darth_Executor striking a conciliatory note in Civics 101
